Brief Summary

An increase of longevity and of the number of men and women older than 60 years old is observed in most industrialized countries. Aging is a complex, multifactorial and continuous process involving physical and biological modifications such as a notably decrease in glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes risk. Insulin sensitivity follow-up during aging is difficult mainly because of many confounding factors (environment, lifestyle). In 2006, SUVIMAX 2 study began, based on the monitoring of volunteers who participated in former SUVIMAX study (1994-2003). This study was a randomised trial which was designed to study the link between a low antioxidant intake and risk of cancer or ischemic heart disease. The subjects recently had a health check-up including complete information about their diet, physical and neurosensory status. Based on these data, a score was established to classify subjects according to their quality of aging ("successful aging versus "problematic aging") These volunteers, who undertook a 13-year follow-up (dietary and medical status), constitute the reference population to determine the mechanisms involved in the insulin resistance development in aging. The purpose of our research work is to determine whether the quality of aging could influence insulin sensitivity, by studying metabolic profile and change in gene expression (genes involved in glucose metabolism and metabolic senescence in muscle tissue) during aging.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Comparison of metabolic profile (lipid metabolism and energy expenditure) and insulin sensitivity based on the aging quality

    120 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Gene expression in muscle tissue by quantitative RT-PCR: genes involved in the carbohydrates and lipids metabolism (lipid carriers, PPARs), 7 sirtuins isoforms and of their target genes (NFkB, PGC1a)

    one day

  • Gene expression in muscle tissue by Global transcriptome analysis by DNA Chip

    one day

Study Arms (2)

Problematic aging

EXPERIMENTAL

Insulin perfusion at 1 mU.kg-1.min-1 Glucose perfusion to maintain euglycemia at 5,0 ± 0,5 mmol/l Blood tests

Problematic agingsuccessful aging
muscle biopsyPROCEDURE

Gene expression in muscle tissue will be studied with two approaches : * Candidate gene approach by quantitative RT-PCR : genes involved in the carbohydrates and lipids metabolism including lipid oxidation in muscle (lipid carriers, PPARs), expression of 7 sirtuins isoforms as well as some of their target genes (NFkB, PGC1a) * Global transcriptome analysis by DNA Chip
